question about fats with carbs...

Yeah I upped my cals to 2300 a day with 250+g protein,170g Carbs and 37g fat. Combined with early morning running and 3 days a week heavy weights I am hoping I will lose my mini love handles.

Re: -->>

So how much fat should I intake a day? I am presently 180 pounds, 5'11" 10-11%bf, I am trying to get up to a lean 195 with 6-7%bf.....I am doing 3 days a week weights and 3-4 days a week cardio...

15lbs of muscle and 4%bf drop w/ 3 day a week training? hmmm, what else are you planning to use besides flaxseed...but, now to get to the point...you can mix about 1tbsp. of a type of fat w/ Low-gi carbs, yet I don't really recommend it...I usually put forth the theory that carbs/fat don't mix, unless of course 33/33/33 (protein/carbs/fat) is done, and even then the fats should be EFA....Just don't mix fats w/ HIGH-gi and you'll be fine
